Q&A
Connect with this vendor by getting to know them beyond their work.
What is your specialty or personal style?
I don’t believe I have a specific style that makes someone instantly recognize my touch in a wedding photo. A wedding is, above all, the union of two unique individuals, and my role is to listen to them and bring out their personalities in every detail. No two couples in the world have ever replicated the exact style of another wedding, and that’s the beauty of the process. I’m not the kind of planner who sticks to a single venue or a particular type of décor. I thrive on challenges and love creating something fresh and different every time. Each wedding is a reflection of the couple, and that’s what makes it truly special.
Couples hire you because…
Couples hire me because I’m clear, direct, and communicative. From the very first call, I make sure to set expectations and provide an indicative price while carefully listening to their needs. This approach immediately creates a sense of trust and security. With years of experience, I’ve developed an ability to quickly understand the type of couple I’m working with and their unique needs. I’m highly present and responsive, always available when needed, yet never overbearing. I genuinely believe that planning a wedding is a beautiful journey. My clients often appreciate the positivity and humor I bring to the process, even in challenging moments—all while maintaining the utmost professionalism.
What’s your favorite aspect of your job?
My favorite aspect of my job is, first and foremost, meeting people from all over the world. Hearing their stories and getting a glimpse into their lives and where they come from is incredibly enriching—it often offers me new perspectives and inspires me in unexpected ways. That said, the creative side of my work is what truly captures my heart. I love the challenge of personalizing each event to reflect the unique personalities of both partners. Finding ways to make their story shine through every detail is the most fulfilling and rewarding part of what I do.
What aspect of your job never ceases to give you butterflies or make you excited?
The first video call always gives me butterflies, just like the very first one did. Knowing that soon, a new couple will appear on my screen, entrusting me with the organization of one of the most important days of their lives, is something that still makes me blush and sets my heart racing. Even after all these years, it feels surreal and fills me with excitement. There are times when I could postpone the call due to a busy schedule, but I love it so much that I’ll happily take it, even at 8 PM after a long, exhausting day. That initial connection and the opportunity to be part of such a special journey never fail to energize me.
Describe the personalities of the couples you get along best with.
The couples I get along with best are those who bring genuine enthusiasm to the process. Honesty is also key—I need them to feel comfortable sharing all their doubts and questions with me. Since they aren’t physically here during the planning, it’s completely natural for them to have concerns, and I’m here to address them. We are a unified team, moving in the same direction, so open communication is essential. When I sense distrust or hesitation from the very first video call, even if the potential for a stunning wedding is there, I’d rather step away. My motto is ‘reputation is more important than money,’ and this is why I’ve never received anything less than a 5-star review. Another crucial aspect is politeness and how couples express themselves. If someone approaches me with a combative or disrespectful attitude from the start, I will absolutely decline to work with them. Respect and mutual trust are the foundation for creating something beautiful together.
What is your favorite thing to do when not working?
My downtime is quite limited, as my work is truly a passion. It doesn’t feel like a burden to visit a wedding venue while on vacation or respond to a few emails in the morning before heading out on a guided tour. I love to travel, whether it’s a weekend getaway to a stunning spot close to home or an adventure halfway around the world. Music is another passion of mine—whether attending concerts or writing and recording my own songs. I also enjoy theater and cinema, watching great films, and dining out to explore new places and cuisines. And yes, I’m a bit of a shopping addict! You’ll often find me browsing stores, whether it’s for fashionable clothing or unique items for the home.
How did you get your start in the wedding industry?
I’m 100% Italian, born and raised in the picturesque region of Portofino and Cinque Terre, just a short drive from Milan, Monaco, and the French Riviera. My first dream was to be a singer—I performed at stunning venues for weddings and events during the high season and acted in theater productions during the winter. Over time, my creative instincts led me behind the scenes. I started writing and directing shows, which naturally brought me into event planning. Combining my network of contacts and my personality, I seamlessly transitioned into becoming a wedding planner. However, I felt constrained in Italy. After a professional opportunity brought me to the Riviera Maya, I realized I had found my true home. Meeting someone special, my now husband Gustavo, who is Mexican, was the final sign I needed. I moved to Playa del Carmen, and together we founded Pride Maya Weddings.
What part of your business are you best at?
I excel in the initial stages of wedding planning, focusing on venue research, contract negotiations with the location and any travel agencies or concierge services, budget analysis, vendor referrals, and style personalization. These steps lay the foundation for a seamless and personalized event. As we move closer to the big day, another team member steps in to handle final details like processional orders, to-do lists, transportation logistics, and more. On the wedding day, both I and the team members you’ve worked with will be present to ensure everything runs smoothly and that the couple feels completely at ease.
What is your communication style?
My communication style is highly adaptable and client-focused. With a smartphone, there’s little difference whether we communicate via email, texting, or other platforms—it’s all about what works best for the couple. Typically, we set up a text group and an email group to streamline communication and aim for about one video call per month. Each couple is unique in terms of their work schedules and needs, so we have no problem adjusting our approach to ensure smooth and effective communication throughout the planning process.
Is there a wedding destination or type that’s on your bucket list right now?
I love Los Cabos! We recently opened an agency in the area and already have a few events planned, but there are such exclusive and uniquely special locations that I can’t wait to work in all of them. I’ve also received proposals for next year in places I had never considered, like Venice, and this would be a project that would truly set my heart racing.
